my face exploded into a million
paper swans and they flew about the room
like pastel paint swatches,
leaving my face expressionless
blank slate lovers
on a flat surface
spidery cobwebs splintering across
broken hearts
sticky cliches all among my veins
caught up in synthesized sounds

my external soul is shaped like you
